Unpublished data stays unknown. Awarded suppliers are winners, not all bidders.

The Supplier will be responsible for supplying annual bedding plants for parks, plants for one metre square planters, and maintaining and watering these features throughout the year. Tenders were invited on 22 May 2025 through OCID ocds-h6vhtk-051ed0. No tenders were received at the tender submission deadline and the Council sought to Switch to Direct Award (s.43 of the Procurement Act 2023).
